    one of you stock udsm sockets fit into the jdm tails you can use that one and then the others. If you do not want to use the 4th bulb its up to you.

    I did a quick job when I initially wired them up but on the weekend I'm taking it out and soldering all the connections. I basically built a totally new harness with the 3 supplied sockets and 1 existing USDM socket....and then wired those into the USDM harness connector. I'll post pics for you then.

    No, you still have to cut the 1 USDM harness (reverse) to be your new blinker.

    thats not stock. thats the back of a them aftermarket tyc altezza style lights.

    if you don't have the factory tail light harness, you can get a new socket at the auto parts store. they run about 4-6 bucks depending on which ones you get.
